My Pretty Sweetheart (Arianna)

Chapter 432

Nerissa folded her arms and looked at me with her alluring eyes. She continued, "Valerie has climbed

so high in the ranks over the past few years. Hence, many illicit things have happened in private, and I

happen to have proof with me. Don't you think it'll be quicker if you surrender the proof to the Moore

family instead of investigating it by yourself?"

I couldn't help frowning and ask, "Why are you helping me?"

She laughed and replied, "The baby you're carrying in your belly is my grandnephew. Isn't that enough

of a reason?"

Hearing this, I couldn't help but sneer. "This has been going on for at least three months. You must

have known about it for a long time, but you're only telling me this now. Do you think I will believe that

you are doing it for your so-called grandnephew?"

Things didn't add up!

Nerissa gazed at me while smiling leisurely. She then said, "I suddenly understand why my father let a

woman from a lowly family like yours marry Hendrix. Although you're somewhat stupid, you still have a

brain."

I narrowed my eyes. That was a backhanded compliment if I ever heard one.

"What do you want me to do?" I asked, subconsciously glancing down at my watch.

"I want you to talk to Charles and get people to stop investigating the Granger family's matters!" She NôvelDrama.Org owns this text.

leaned against the wine cabinet at the side, her posture relaxed.

Stop investigating the Granger family? Was that so she could smoothly take over the Granger Group

and become the chairwoman?

Without Irvin, no one other than Nerissa could lay a hand on the massive Granger Group.

With a faint smile, I said to her calmly, "Madam Roberts, I think we should find some time to sit down

and discuss this properly. It's very sloppy to take care of this matter with just a few words. Oh right, I

have an appointment to attend to in a while. Let's talk another day."

Nerissa frowned but didn't say much. She narrowed her eyes and said after a while, "Okay, let's talk

another time."

After leaving the villa, I drove directly to the place I had agreed on with Kelsey. When I arrived, she was

already there.

When I saw that she had finished the cup of coffee in her hand, I could tell that she must have waited

for a long time.

When she spotted me, she looked at her watch, raised her eyebrows and then said, "Madam Reid, you

are half an hour late."

I shrugged and spoke apologetically, "I was delayed by something. I'm sorry."

She smiled lightly and didn't reply. Then, she took out a document from her bag and handed it to me,

saying, "This is the transaction record between Valerie Lawson and Michael Lewis. You can have a

look at it."

"Michael?" I was stunned for a few seconds before suddenly remembering who he was.

He was the one who had knocked himself out while we were auditing Calvin Hammer.

Kelsey nodded. After the waiter had refilled her glass, she spoke again, "Michael is the middleman for

Valerie's contact with Arnold. He is the project director for Alford Audit. The seasonal audits of a few of

Valerie's companies are entrusted to him. Therefore, the transactions between them are all in order. If

someone were to look into it, no one would pay attention to this."

I frown slightly and asked, "So, the financial exchanges between Valerie and Arnold essentially happen

through Michael?"

She nodded, but I still had some doubts. "Michael and Valerie work in business, so it's normal for them

to have transactions with each other. However, even if Valerie transferred money to Arnold through

Michael, Michael is a businessman, and Arnold is a politician. If the amount of transferred money

between them is too large, people will start to suspect something."

Kelsey answered, "Yes, that's why I continued investigating the relationship between Arnold and

Michael. I found that Arnold's wife had a large farm company under her name, which had been running

for almost ten years."

"So, are you saying that Arnold collected the money through his wife?"
